1. The "Mold Prison" of Stamping

Scene (Mexican Auto Parts Plant):

Changeover Nightmare:

  • 8AM: New EV battery tray order received

  • 10AM: Locate 3-ton mold in warehouse

  • 2PM: Crane setup with 3mm error

  • Result: $8,000 daily loss

Global Pain (BCG Data):

  • 1 mold = 1 Tesla Model 3 ($35k)

  • Annual changeover time = 1.5 NBA seasons

  • Mold storage = 2 basketball courts
